    The Org boasts about the 18 million in attendance to the annual Commemoration... In virtue of the fact that there are 7 million active publishers, there are perhaps several million children in attendance without mentioning the visit from former members (Disfellowships, Walkouts and Faders) who pay annual hommage to the Org due to their families and loved ones...

    Judging by your experience on your Congregations weighting in the ratio of children, regular visitors and such...How much will you estimate the number of real 'visitors' to the commemoration?

    I'd say the real bible studies are the only true visitors. Its hard figure out how many of those there are when you take out all off the "kid bible studies" that are in that number. I would say a generous estimate is 1 million of that number.

    The rest are there because they are arm-twisted into it

    I would say only 1 % of the visitors are potentially taking it to heart or seriously and none of them really 'get' the message.
